On 20 January, the Iranian Army Ground Force tested the new indigenous electro-optic system against hypothetical enemy targets in the Eqtedar 99 drills on 18 January.
The system was designed and built by experts in the Army Ground Force. It is capable of transmitting images taken in pitch dark to all remote control and command centers as well as combining radar and optical data.
"The Ground Force used the mobile electro-optic system on the second day of the drills in order to precisely monitor different areas and the wargames zone," said FSA.
"The message of Eqtedar 99 drills to friendly countries is peace and for enemies is that if there is aggression or threat in their minds, we will respond to any aggression with might and power and in the shortest possible time and will make them regret of their deeds,” the Deputy Commander of the Iranian Army Ground Force and Spokesman of the Drills Brigadier General Kiomars Sharafi said.
